Today, I broke up with my boyfriend. Devastated, he withered onto the floor into an inconsolable wreck in front of dozens of people. The ribbon of embarrassment that went down my spine was too much for me to handle, so I had to tell him I was "only joking." FML

Today, I broke up with my boyfriend. I had only been dating him for about a month. Thinking he wouldn't take it very hard, I invited him over so I could tell him in person. Little did I know he was going to start crying on my couch and not leave for 5 hours. FML

Well, this was the point in which you walk away, since he's no longer your problem.

That's really cruel yanking his chain like that. If you choose to stupidly do it in public then you should follow through.

I think I just moderated your boyfriends post.. Saying his girlfriend broke up with him in public but was just kidding, akward.
